BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

The aim of the symposium is to bring together international researchers and
practitioners in the field of software technology. Its focus is on formal
methods and advanced software technologies, especially for engineering
complex, large-scale artefacts like
cyber-physical systems, networks of things, enterprise systems, or
cloud-based services. Contributions relating to formal methods or
integrating them with software engineering, as well as papers advancing
scalability or widening the scope of rigorous methods to new design goals
are especially welcome.

Being hosted in China, the symposium will also provide a platform for
building up research collaborations between the rapidly growing
Chinese computer science community and its international counterpart. The
symposium will support this process through dedicated events and therefore
welcomes both young researchers considering
international collaboration in formal methods and established researchers
looking for international cooperation and willing to
attract new colleagues to the domain.

Authors are invited to submit papers on original research, industrial
applications, or position papers proposing challenges in fundamental
research and technology. The latter two types of submissions are
expected to contribute to the development of formal methods either by
substantiating the advantages of integrating formal methods into the
development cycle or through delineating need for research by
demonstrating weaknesses of existing technologies, especially when
addressing new application domains.

Submissions can take the form of either normal or short papers. Short
papers can discuss ongoing research at an early stage, including PhD
projects. Papers should be written in English. Regular Papers should not
exceed 15 pages and Short Papers should not exceed 6 pages in LNCS format
(see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for
details). The proceedings will be published as a volume in Springer's LNCS
series. The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited
to submit extended versions of their papers to appear in a special issue of
the Formal Aspect Computing journal.
